QUOTE (Strafin @ Mar 4 2011, 05:38 PM) The point about the studednt was that his business was illegal in as much as it wasn't registered, and he was not paying tax on his earnings. My point at the time was also that I did not think the forum should be used for promoting a business, however the majority (at the time) disagreed so I accept that people don't mind, so haven't made the same point about this one. Businesses do not have to be 'registered, and there is no tax liability if annual taxable earnings don't cross the threshold. Many (students) work without paying tax perfectly legally.

QUOTE (Strafin @ Mar 4 2011, 05:34 PM) Care to back that up with some figures? Smokers cost NHS ~£3b; smokers pay ~£9b. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7654153.stmI don't smoke, but I do walk on the cracks of the pavement.

QUOTE (JeffG @ Mar 4 2011, 04:46 PM) So if someone copies their home movies from VHS to DVD, they are breaching their own copyright? Not if they own the copyright, no.

QUOTE (Strafin @ Mar 4 2011, 05:34 PM) The only thing that is good is that natural selections means the stupid people who choose to smoke end up in a box quicker than the rest of us. Thus reducing the costs to society in terms of pension, etc.

QUOTE (user23 @ Mar 4 2011, 05:53 PM) Not if they own the copyright, no. Sorry, that was meant to be a rhetorical question, from the department of the bleedin' obvious, since if someone makes a home movie, they own the copyright and can do what they like with it.

QUOTE (Rosewinelover @ Mar 4 2011, 02:00 PM) I can not believe how rude some of you have been in replying. Ever heard the old saying 'If you haven't got anything nice to say, don't say nothing at all'. Mrs Spartacus is a chubber in denial... (Water retention problems, heavy bones, time of the month (Really luv? ALL four weeks??!), slow metabolism, I only eat rabbit food and selected dairy products (yeah,... like milk chocolate and six bowls of sugared Alpen )) But perhaps I need to remind myself daily of that old adage that Rosewinelover has mentioned, about keeping gob shut... (I'll pass on the fact that she's used a double negative, so we are in fact allowed to say something at all apparently) I'm reminded of a variation of the old joke where a husband and wife are getting ready for bed. The wife is standing in front of a full length mirror taking a long hard look at herself in the buff.... "Y'know luv.." she says..."I look in the mirror and I wonder where the woman I once was has gone... All I see is an old woman. My face is all wrinkled, my boobs are sagging down to my waist, my bum is hanging out a mile and I've got fat flabby arms and legs that are all cellulite and wobbly..." She turns to her husband and says "Please tell me something positive to make me feel better about myself..." He puts down his book and thinks about it for a bit... Then, in a soft voice says "Well.... There's nothing wrong with your eyesight luv..." I splurted out a similar comment to my missus several months ago for a joke when see asked a similar question..... she did NOT see the funny side!! The bruises went within a few weeks though...

QUOTE (TallDarkAndHandsome @ Mar 4 2011, 12:21 PM) Perhaps a diet is in order? I don't mean to be rude but smokers are told to stop smoking so perhaps overweight people should stop eating so much??? QUOTE (dannyboy @ Mar 4 2011, 01:04 PM) I was wondering if there was a Lingerie catalogue myself. QUOTE (Bofem @ Mar 4 2011, 01:10 PM) Is this cover for some sort of chubby swingers night? I think we should be told and more

QUOTE (panda @ Mar 7 2011, 10:22 PM) and more None are me and look at my replies to TDH. Meanwhile; what about your vitriol towards Simon Kirkby? You have posted NOTHING to show why you are justified in posting as you do.
